GRAZ, JULY 3, 2024. Swedish forest industry group Södra has selected
international technology group ANDRITZ to supply a complete solution for
kraft lignin production to its Mönsterås pulp mill in Sweden. This major
investment marks Södra’s entry into the lignin market as part of its
strategy to make the most of the wood used in pulp production. This will
be the first commercial kraft lignin plant in Sweden and the largest in
the world.

Kraft lignin is a by-product of pulp production for paper. Today it is
used in pulp mills to generate energy. However, it can also be used as a
renewable resource to replace fossil-based materials in the chemical
industry or form the basis for new biofuels.

“This investment means a lot for Södra and for our kraft pulp mill in
Mönsterås. We will make more out of every tree and strengthen our
profitability. This is a big investment for Södra and the green
transition,” says Karin Dernegård, Mill Manager at Södra Cell Mönsterås. 

ANDRITZ will supply a system to recover the lignin contained in the black
liquor from the pulping process, making it available to Södra as a
saleable product. The scope of supply will also include supporting systems
that improve the mill’s environmental performance and ensure full
integration of lignin recovery into the existing operations.

The system will be based on the innovative ANDRITZ LignaRec^TM lignin
recovery process. The lignin drying section, equipped with flash dryer
technology, will further process the kraft lignin, ensuring a top-quality
product. The integration of the LignaRec process into the Mönsterås pulp
mill will be completed by the installation of an ANDRITZ SulfoLoop^TM
sulfuric acid plant. This plant enables the closure of the sulfur loop,
avoiding the purge of sulfate streams even after lignin recovery is
implemented.

Lignin and sulfur recovery solutions are part of ANDRITZ’s CircleToZero
initiative, which aims to maximize the use of side streams in pulp mills,
laying the foundation for zero emissions and zero waste production. With
the new order, Södra continues its collaboration with ANDRITZ on the reuse
of side streams. The company already operates an ANDRITZ Kraftanol^TM
biomethanol plant at its Mönsterås mill. This plant is the first of its
kind in the world to convert by-products of pulp production into purified
biomethanol.

“We are very pleased that Södra has once again placed its trust in us to
implement a first-of-its-kind solution that supports the green transition
and at the same time opens up new business opportunities,” says Joachim
Schönbeck, President and CEO of ANDRITZ.

Södra’s lignin production plant is scheduled to start up in 2027 and is
enabled through the Swedish Energy Agency and The Industrial Leap via
NextGenerationEU.
